Ajith confessed that it was love at first sight for him when he worked with his wife Shalini for the first time in Amarkalam. But it was a different incident which played cupid from them. And it involved the Vidaamuyarchi actor accidentally injuring his wife.
Ajith recalled how, during the shooting of one of the scenes, he accidentally cut Shalini’s wrists. The duo were unaware of it at first until the latter started bleeding profusely. She was soon rushed to the hospital for immediate treatment. Not only this, but the Citizen actor unleashed his caring side and took great care of her. His kindness and empathy melted her heart and they soon started dating.
That was just the beginning, as the couple soon tied the knot on April 24, 2000. They welcomed their first child, a daughter, Anoushka, in January 2008, while their son Aadvik was born in March 2015. They never fail to shell out some major couple goals and will complete 25 years of their marriage the next month this year.
